Borough of Roselle Park in a resolution dated April 20, 2006 authorized the Planning Board to conduct a preliminary investigation to determine if the Study Area (Romerovski Site) is a Redevelopment Area according to the criteria set forth in N.J.S.A. 40A:12A-5 and to conduct a hearing in accordance with N.J.S.A. 40A:12A-6. Subsequently, an analysis of the Study Area’s existing Land Use, physical characteristics and accessibility was conducted and published in a report/study called the Romerovski Site Redevelopment Study. The Romerovski Site Redevelopment Study determined that the study area satisfied the criteria established by section 5 of the Local Redevelopment & Housing Law, (“LRHL”) as a Redevelopment Area. The Planning Board then completed a hearing on the matter on September 18, 2006 and recommended it to the Borough Council. The Borough Council adopted Resolution 158-06 determining the study area as an “Area in Need of Redevelopment”. The Borough Council of the Borough of Roselle Park in a resolution dated April 20, 2006 authorized the preparation of a redevelopment plan for the Romerovski Site Redevelopment Area (heretofore referred to as the “Redevelopment Area”). The Plan was formally adopted by ordinance of the Borough of Roselle Park Governing Body on March 1, 2007. Since the original March 2007 Romerovski Redevelopment Plan adoption, a builder’s remedy lawsuit was filed contesting the redevelopment plan. On November 5, 2007, the Court

  • CONNECTING a CONTINENT: AT&T and the Broadcast Networks
    CONNECTING A CONTINENT: AT&T and the Broadcast Networks Copyright 2021 by Mark Durenberger This is a second update of the original work dated October, 2013. The most important changes include: 1) The strengthening and expanding of a good deal of factual information, including further research and follow-up on comments and suggestions offered by readers of the original work. Thank you for your input! 2) The rebuilding of drawings and the addition of illustrations and URLs to offer deeper understanding. 3) The transfer of deep technical detail to the last chapter where it becomes a technical addendum. (This should make the story easier to follow and should make it easier for those not interested in such detail…while offering deep technical detail for those who are.) 4) The original URLs pointed to an older website. These hot buttons have been repointed as of April 2021. 5) The document has been reformatted and may be easier to read. To supplement the material referenced throughout, we’re fortunate to keep turning up fresh information online. New web sites appear almost daily containing scans of the trade magazines, literature and correspondence involving the subject under scrutiny (one of the most useful is WorldRadioHistory.Com). Hopefully the changes will be useful! "Everything that once was wireless is now wired. Everything that once was wired is now wireless." - Rodney E. Nilk About four years ago, inspired by a piece by James O’Neal in Radio World Magazine I came to realize that, while many of us grew up in a broadcast industry created in part by AT&T, there’s been no easy access to the full detail of AT&T’s contributions.
